Absolute Resonance - Chapter 812 – Cheating

Chapter 0812: Cheating

“Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation…”

As Li Luo digested the new info that had flowed into his mind, he was a little stunned. “Is this strange thing a Duke Art?

“But what grade is it?

“Seeing how the python puppet acted so mysteriously and even sought proof, surely this isn’t just an ordinary item, right? After all, it even required the Heavenly Emperor’s Writ to obtain it…”

He was full of questions, but he concentrated and reviewed the information that had just surfaced in his mind seriously. After a short moment, he couldn’t help but let out a cry of surprise.

He finally realized how special this Duke Art, the Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation, was. It was a kind of sword formation that required one to possess Dragon Fang Swords, which were no ordinary blades. A Dragon Fang Sword could only be forged by refining it from one’s resonance affinities.

And the true strength of the Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation would only be shown when there were at least two Dragon Fang Swords present.

As the number of Dragon Fang Swords grew, the art’s power would grow as well.

At this moment, Li Luo was filled with excitement. This was the perfect Duke Art for him. If it was about the grade of the resonances, the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent was full of talents. Even with his triple resonances, he would not dare to proclaim himself as the best. However, if it was about the number of resonances, Li Luo would not lose out to anyone.

He might appear to just possess three resonances on first look, but there were primary and secondary affinities to each one. As such, he had a total of six types of resonant powers!

Crafting a Dragon Fang Sword required one to refine dragon resonant power together with another resonance type. In other words, he could potentially forge up to five Dragon Fang Swords.

Water Dragon Fang Sword, Wood Dragon Fang Sword, Light Dragon Fang Sword, Earth Dragon Fang Sword, Lightning Dragon Fang Sword….

No wonder this Duke Art had been named “Myriad Resonances”—it was due to such a cultivation method.

In that case, how strong would the Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation be if he could manage to forge five Dragon Fang Swords?

And what grade would this Duke Art be?

Li Luo stood there in a daze before he gradually came back to his senses. As he stared at the mottled dragon fang in his hand, he felt that this was too much of a coincidence.

Clearly, he had triggered a few criteria in order to get ahold of this Duke art. For example, he had multiple resonances in him that had attracted the python puppet. In addition, he possessed the Heavenly Emperor’s Writ needed for the certification to trigger the python puppet to spit out the Duke Art…

All of this was too much of a coincidence. Nonetheless, he put away the mottled dragon fang, and his eyes flickered a little. Whether it was a coincidence or not, this thing had fallen into his possession. It was destined for him, and he would not be giving it up now.

Afterwards, he swiftly turned around and headed for the exit of Dragon’s Fang Cave.

With the Duke Art secured, there was no need to stay around any longer.

Li Luo walked along the winding path and finally arrived back at the entrance of the cave. At this time, the gray-robed elder opened his eyes and slowly asked, “Which Duke Art have you chosen?”

As the gatekeeper of this place, he needed to record all of the movements of the Duke Arts of the lineage. Once the person who borrowed it had mastered the art, he would need to return the Duke Art.

Hearing this, Li Luo hesitated for a moment as he considered whether he should tell the truth. This lasted for a few moments before he finally took out the mottled dragon fang and honestly explained his strange situation to the elder.

Obviously, the elder stationed here was not an ordinary clan member, so it would not be easy to hide something from him.

When Li Luo took out the mottled dragon fang, the sleepy eyes of the gray-robed elder widened. He took a good, long look at it.

“Elder, do you know of this Duke Art?” Li Luo asked. It was evident from the elder’s reaction that he understood something about it.

The corners of the gray-robed elder’s mouth twitched a little as he remarked, “Li Jingzhe, when did you start to break the rules?”

Li Luo was taken aback by his comment. However, a voice suddenly came from behind him before he could explain anything more. “It’s not a violation of the rules, is it?”

At this point, Li Luo quickly turned back. Li Jingzhe had appeared behind him.

“Grandpa? Why are you here?” Li Luo asked in surprise.

Li Jingzhe smiled back at Li Luo before he turned towards the gray-robed elder and continued, “Second Uncle, this Duke Art is very compatible with Li Luo. In that case, why not give it to him?”

Indeed, the gray-robed elder commanded a very high level of respect in the Dragon’s Fang Lineage. Even Li Jingzhe, the Lineage Chief, had to refer to him as “Second Uncle.”

Second Uncle replied angrily, “This Duke Art was created by our Ancestor for someone with the right affinity. Aren’t you cheating if you change the conditions like this? This little guy could not have drawn out the python puppet. I know very well that the python puppet only appears before those who have reached a certain age and possess three types of Duke Arts. Surely, Li Luo here has not met these requirements, right?” the elder continued.

Li Luo was startled when he heard this. Just as he had imagined, this was too much of a coincidence. It was Li Jingzhe pulling the strings from behind the stage all along.

This left him feeling both touched and awkward. He had never expected that Li Jingzhe would secretly help him find a Duke Art in Dragon’s Fang Cave.

“The requirements our Ancestor created for this Duke Art are very demanding, yet it is still very compatible with Li Luo. Naturally, I’m confident that he will be the chosen one with the affinity to cultivate it. Second Uncle, you are a little too stubborn at times,” Li Jingzhe replied.

Hearing this, the gray-robed elder laughed angrily. “Oh? Am I really being called stubborn by Li Jingzhe? If you weren’t the most stubborn guy in the Dragon’s Fang Lineage, Li Taixuan wouldn’t have chosen to escape to the outer divine continents.”

Li Jingzhe’s face turned dark, and he kept silent after hearing the sharp remark.

Seeing his reaction, the gray-robed elder knew he had inadvertently hurt Li Jingzhe with those piercing words. He took another glance at the mottled dragon fang and sighed in response. “The Ancestor specifically told me to take good care of this Duke Art. Why did you come here and interfere with the process as if you had nothing better to do?”

“I just feel that it’s a waste for this Duke Art to be left rotting in the cave for so long. Perhaps Li Luo will be able to bring out its potential,” Li Jingzhe explained.

“Oh? Based on what? Based on his triple resonances?” the gray-robed elder replied with a curl to his lips.

At this moment, Li Jingzhe gave Li Luo a glance, and the latter understood immediately. He summoned the resonant power within his body, and the six different types of resonant power appeared before them.

The gray-robed elder stroked his beard with his fingers as he stared at Li Luo in surprise.

“This is… six resonances?! Impossible! Wait, that is not right… three of them are weaker. Are those secondary resonance affinities? Triple resonances with primary and secondary attributes?”

The gray-robed elder exclaimed in surprise multiple times before he finally grasped Li Luo’s special traits.

“See, this Duke Art created by our Ancestor is a perfect fit for Li Luo,” Li Jingzhe said with a laugh.

The gray-robed elder frowned a little before he nodded reluctantly. Although Li Jingzhe had been respectful to him all this while due to his seniority, Li Jingzhe was still the Lineage Chief of the Dragon’s Fang Lineage. If he continued to insist on his way, things might turn ugly in the end.

“Forget it, you are the Lineage Chief of our lineage. You have the final say.” The gray-robed elder snorted and then sat back down.

“Thank you, Second Uncle,” Li Jingzhe answered politely.

At this point, Li Luo also thanked the gray-robed elder respectfully.

“Li Luo, since you possess the appropriate affinity to this art, you should make good use of it. The ancestor created the Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation because he wanted to create a Transcendent Duke Art for the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. In other words, this art has the potential to become transcendent. I hope that you will not let it go to waste,” the gray-robed elder commented before he shut his eyes.

Li Luo’s body trembled and his heart thumped rapidly upon hearing this.

“Transcendent potential?! The Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation is really formidable!”
